Larita is married to a drunk. After he catches her almost being seduced, he brings suit for divorce on the grounds of adultery. Since she is now a disgraced woman of "easy virtue", Larita goes to the French Riviera where she meets and marries a rich younger man, John Whittaker. She doesn't tell him about her past and they return to England to meet his family. His mother disapproves, suspecting Larita of immorality. Larita's past is revealed when she decides to allow John to divorce her so he can marry Sarah, a local girl whom his mother had in mind as a suitable match.
